FORMER Melksham professional footballer Matt Bound, has swapped the football pitch for the Gower Peninsula.
Matt, who grew up in Melksham and went on to play for Southampton and Swansea, now runs Home from Home Holiday Cottages.
Established in 1972, Home from Home manage and let around 280 holiday homes in and around Gower, Swansea Marina, Mumbles and South West Wales, offering the perfect getaway whether your passion be dog walking, surfing, shopping or just chilling.
“This part of South Wales is such a fantastic part of the world,” said Matt who still has family living in Melksham. “I was back in Melksham recently to play against Manchester United All Stars at Melksham Town’s fantastic new ground. It was great to bump into some old friends!
“Reading Melksham News, I thought it would be great to shout about our holidays here in South Wales. We’re only a couple of hours away from Melksham and offer a range of fantastic holidays, giving people a comfortable, private base that really is a ‘home from home’.
“From the charm of a cosy rustic cottage to a spacious contemporary apartment or an impressive family house, our friendly bespoke service is on hand to find a holiday home that is right for you.
“The area is fantastic whether you want to go walking, surfing, shopping or just want to chill out; we are confident we’ve got what you need; a comfortable space to do what you want, when you want. And if you’d like to make it extra special, we can help here too.
“From an in-house beauty therapy and visiting spa service, to private chefs and gourmet Welsh hampers on arrival. We’re experts on where to stay and what to do in Mumbles, Gower, and Swansea Marina. Just pick up the phone to find out more, search for properties online or ask us to send you our latest brochure.
“The Home from Home ethos is friendly, flexible and helpful, adding value where and whenever we can to make the customer experience a seamless and pleasant one.
“We are passionate about Gower as a visitor destination and aim to be more than a booking agent for self-catering properties. Not only do we look for properties that will best suit our customers’ needs, but have a portfolio wide enough to ensure that the area and its amenities are a good match too.
“Once here, we’re a fount of information as to what to do and what’s going on. And for those looking to switch off and let someone else take the strain, we can even offer a range of bespoke services; just take a look at our website for more details.
